Analyst Opinion

The TV & Video market in El Salvador has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and local special circumstances.

Customer preferences:
El Salvadorian consumers have shown a strong preference for TV and video content, with a particular interest in local and regional programming. This is reflected in the popularity of local TV channels and the demand for content that is relevant to the local culture and language. Additionally, there is a growing interest in streaming services and on-demand video platforms, as consumers seek more flexibility in their viewing habits.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the TV & Video market in El Salvador is the shift towards digital platforms. With the increasing availability of high-speed internet and the proliferation of smartphones and other connected devices, consumers are increasingly turning to digital channels for their entertainment needs. This has led to the rise of streaming services and on-demand video platforms, which offer a wide range of content and a more personalized viewing experience. Another trend in the market is the growth of advertising-supported video on demand (AVOD) platforms. These platforms offer free access to a wide range of content, supported by advertisements. This model has gained popularity among consumers who are looking for cost-effective ways to access their favorite TV shows and movies.

Local special circumstances:
El Salvador has a relatively small population compared to other countries in the region, which presents both opportunities and challenges for the TV & Video market. On one hand, the smaller market size allows for more targeted content and advertising, catering to the specific needs and preferences of the local audience. On the other hand, it can be challenging for content providers to achieve economies of scale and generate sufficient revenue from a smaller customer base.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The development of the TV & Video market in El Salvador is also influenced by underlying macroeconomic factors. The country has experienced steady economic growth in recent years, which has led to an increase in disposable income and consumer spending. This has contributed to the growth of the TV & Video market, as consumers have more money to spend on entertainment. Additionally, the government has implemented policies to promote the development of the digital economy, which has created a favorable environment for the growth of the TV & Video market. In conclusion, the TV & Video market in El Salvador is experiencing growth due to changing customer preferences, including a preference for local and regional content, as well as the increasing popularity of digital platforms. The market is also influenced by local special circumstances, such as the smaller population size, and underlying macroeconomic factors, including steady economic growth and government policies.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Traditional TV & Home Video and OTT (over-the-top) Services. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective segment. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / Segment size:

The segment size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the segment size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant segment. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.
